Barry, Joe and Eddie are working together to prevent multiple armed robbery. The one ‘yeah but’ is that Eddie doesn’t seem as thrilled as the other two with the expediency in which these crimes are being dealt with.

Reluctantly at Star Labs, the team discovers that bees are the reason an innocent woman is now dead. Cisco’s paranoia about bees is almost comical. Just as Barry says, “I think I can outrun a bee”, Felicity Smoak enters the facility. Never a bad day when we get a nice Felicity crossover. She asks them to accompany her outside. As the ATOM (played by Brandon Routh who also played Kal-El in the most forgettable version of Superman in Returns) makes his appearance, they went there. The CW has no shame and went there.

In the lab there is jealousy on Barry’s behalf. Awkwardness coming from Felicity and Ray. Cisco seems geeked to get his hands on the ATOM suit. And Harrison seems leery of Barry’s behavior.

Eddie is finding it more and more difficult to effectively keep the secret from Iris. He even made the mistake of complaining about his more intimate endeavors with Iris to Joe. Which never goes over well. Eddie then finds Barry with Felicity drinking coffee. What is it about Central City, young adults, and the addiction to coffee?

Cisco and Ray work together to improve the ATOM’s suit performance when Ray says something that triggers a flashback that technically speaking, never happened. Ray said, “You really are quite clever, Cisco”. The exact words that Harrison/Reverse Flash/Thawne said to him before he killed Cisco.

There is another bee attack. This time Barry is too late. And there is no sign of the bees. Then all of them fly out of the dead body Barry stands in front of. As fast as he ran, there were just too many of them. He gets outside and they disperse, but not before Barry experiences cardiac arrest. Joe attempts CPR until Cisco tells him to step back, there are defibrillators inside the suit. They revive him just in time.

At Star Labs there is a noticeable awkwardness. Barry couldn’t get out because Cisco was using outdated schematics. Felicity makes a joke about Cisco not trying to kill him, but the suspicion of Harrison Wells might just be spilling over. Once given the all clear, Barry speeds off to get dressed for the triple dinner date. There was also a bee left in Barry’s suit. If these are robotic, like they seem to be, that could spell trouble for everyone in Star labs.

Cisco drops in to talk with Joe. He’s picking up on Barry’s behavior. Joe deflects, then suggests that Barry might be worried about the next time the Reverse Flash shows up. Thus, triggering another flashback in Cisco’s mind that he’s not supposed to remember.

The dinner date is going horribly, especially since Barry is playing the third wheel. Barry walks out to get some air and Felicity follows. She now needs to know what is going on and will not accept “bad time” as an answer. Reluctantly, Barry lets her in on the issue with Harrison Wells and the confusion towards who he can trust. Today’s bee incident not helping that cause in the slightest. They luckily get called back to Star Labs, they found the bee. Barry captures the bee quickly. Then Cisco and Caitlin discover that it’s not a bee, it’s a robot.

A quick stop at Mercury Labs and the team has the identity of the ‘queen bee’. Meanwhile, Barry meets with Felicity about the current Wells/Cisco/Caitlin situation. By the end, Felicity’s take is to trust your friends. A concept Barry is struggling with.

Barry arrives home to find Iris there. She standing firm on her insistence to act bitchy towards Eddie. Is Eddie hiding something from her? Yes. It’s not another woman, so get over it. But, Barry gives a very plausible and in no way accurate explanation that she sincerely buys. Despite the fact that she’s surprised Barry would go to such lengths to have Eddie’s back on this.

The bees are en route to a new target. Mercury Labs. Barry can’t take on a swarm of robotic bees again with his defibrillator damaged, so Ray offers to go. Ray protects the target, Barry pursues the source only to find out that the source has many many more bees at her disposal. Good news is that Felicity has hacked the frequency. Bree, the queen bee, is not bad herself.

Felicity: Barry, I have them. I’m controlling the bees.
Bree: I’m the queen of this hive.
Felicity: She’s good. She’s like my nemesis. I’ve never had a nemesis before, I kinda like it.

Side note. Cisco and Ray Palmer are engaged in a real bro-mance. Cisco takes a ‘bee’ for Ray and almost dies. Barry arrives in time to use his talents to jump start Cisco’s heart.

In the end, Felicity’s skills win the day. She even has a ‘drop the mic’ moment, but it’s just odd coming from her.

Dr. McGee drops in on Barry’s lab to apologize for refusing their help. Before she can leave, Barry asks about the tension between her and Wells. She, in a very simplistic way, explained that Harrison Wells became a different person after Tess died. As we saw in the last episode, the night Tess died, Harrison Wells did in fact become a different person. Eobard Thawne parading around in a Harrison Wells meat suit.

Despite Barry’s great spin on the Eddie situation, Iris continues to tow the hard-line on telling her everything.

Cisco and Caitlin arrive at Barry’s lab under the pretense that they are going to karaoke. When they arrive, Barry and Joe look somber and the evidence board is open. Barry shows them what they have on the Reverse Flash and what they have on Harrison Wells. Caitlin is immediately defensive about the prospect. Cisco is silent. Until he is not.

Caitlin: Cisco. Say something.
Cisco: I’ve been having these dreams. Mostly at night but sometimes during the day. But they don’t really feel like dreams. They feel real.
Barry: What happens in the dream?
Cisco (looking at Caitlin): Dr. Wells is the Reverse Flash. And he kills me.
